Got my polish archer from center fire systems . I had the parts laying around for getting it closer to the polish beryl wich it's a civilian version of . I seldom buy a factory rifle since I build AKs for a hobby . This ones a winner . Before my scope showed up we took it out and were hitting a 4 inch spinner with 100 percent hits at 100 yards . The claims that it's a 1 MOA shooter is quite possible . I went with a skeletonized mount built by warne .save a little weight . Scope I have is the leatherwood hi lux 1 4x24 . It's sheveron for 5.56x45 and. 7.62x39 . They also have a 5.56 specific model but I chose the original form . It's a solid well built scope with the clearest optics I've seen for the price . Compatible to the highest priced scopes . The rifle is quite heavy all dressed up . The polish fore end is very weighty . The poles actualy went to an aluminum style forend probably for this reason . I prefer this one though . I realy have no plan to use the rails for anything I just like the look of the forward grip and can always switch back to the standard forend . The rifle is parkerized and I will probably at some time finish it with a bake on paint finish like gunkote or alumahyde 2 . It's made for 223 and the 5.45 of course but it prefers the 5.56 ight military round as tests by others has proven . I'm using the federal 5.56 M193 NATO round made by Federal . So far I have been able to get it reasonably from my local Cabelas on sale .

And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that with it Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits, in Thy mercy." And the Lord did grin and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats

I have only tried the federal 55 grain . Can get a one inch 5 shot group . Anything heavy doesn't work as well . The poles got their rifle right . Goes to prove that an AK type can be accurate . Shoots better than my AR . Just can't use penetrators wich is OK by me for practical purposes . I can pick up the xm193 at my local Cabelas reasonably .
